Oh, but we have weed. People give it to us and it just piles up. It's there. I think about it. Just now, I was thinking it might be nice to get a little high for once, get in a hot tub and read. Then, I remembered that I probably couldn't read stoned. I can't carry on a conversation or keep a train of thought or even understand what's going on in a TV show half the time, so how could I possibly read?
I can't get stoned and hang out in bars or clubs. I can't get stoned and go to work or talk to my mom. I can't get stoned and go hiking, jogging or work out. I can't get stoned after I drink or I turn into an instant cross-eyed vegetable. I can't get stoned and walk down the hall of my building for fear any neighbors I run into might think I'm weird. I can't be in public stoned. I can't order food stoned. I can't go into a deli to get a soda stoned.
Why do people find being stoned so relaxing?

Other than that, I've had red hair, purple hair, you know all the names that get tossed around like chocolat thai or creeper and chronic. I noticed differences, sure, but one thing remained the same: I always got retarded and the retardation always leads to paranoia.

I have literally not had a connection for 7 years or so. I have no idea where to get it. None of my friends who get it occasionally are dealers or anything. I wouldn't even know how to go about getting really good stuff these days.
Ah well, it's not like I can read a book in a hot tub drunk either, so what the hell, right?

Speed sex takles ages to get anywhere? Are you kidding? It may last a few minutes longer than usual, but it gets somewhere pretty damn quick. Gets right to it, actually. And stays there, at full throttle, until its over. And then you can do it again! Speed is awesome!

You know, also noticed that I didn't have nearly as much paranoia when I started smoking as I do now. Like, for the first couple years it was great, I could go anywhere. But then I started getting really paranoid, and when I was stoned I couldn't go out in public or even be around people I didn't know that well. I wonder if it has something to do with that reverse tolerance thing where long-time smokers actually require less weed to get high than they used to?
The enormous generalization of calling all pot smokers boring is like the second most annoying thing in the world, after conservatives that constantly say that liberals are "whining".

I just recall with amusement his efforts to make me get "outside my head" while stoned. "C'mon, Julie, focus, focus, look at this, do that ..." and I'd be like "Uhnnngggghh ...." and stare at the wall. I wish there were videos.

I know in my own case when I get high in social situations, say a party or whatever, the things that interest me - music, images, uh just freaking myself out in general - become even more interesting to the point where I do become more withdrawn. But yeah that tends to create a kind of paranoia that will feed on itself if you allow yrself to focus on it; like, "man I really shouldn't sit in this chair and listen to this record, I should get up and go talk to those people over there".
I think the point is, instead of hang-wringing over this pot-induced behavior we ought to recognize these as perhaps just latent personality traits. If the goal was to become more sociable, secure, confident whatever, I think we'd do well to snort some coke or something. If we're smoking pot because we want to get "inside our heads", amplify our perceptions, we shouldn't be surprised if we get all quiet and withdrawn.
― Mr. Diamond (diamond), Sunday, 29 June 2003 03:20 (twenty-two years ago)
From now on, I am going to pipe in every thread that does not interest me only to point out how boring it is. I feel this is much easier than simply clicking the back button in mid-realization of my lack of interest. In fact, I don't see any reason to stop there. I'm just going to interrupt people on the street and let them know what I think of their conversation. I can't wait to bump into the next unsuspecting proud new mom with her "cute" baby stories.

Well, this makes no sense. New moms aren't pregnant. If they are, they're not very "new". Also, people who don't get stoned, don't typically have stoner antics.

Also, it is urgent and key to RECORD EVERYTHING because you will come up with something brilliant that you won't be able to reproduce if you have to get up and plug in your recording device.

But it being illegal is part of the larger situation one is in.
I dunno, I just don't worry/think about it. It's not like the police will break down my house or something. Or that they'll come into a club... Actually they might do, but, fuck it, I don't worry about that. Maybe because in Belgium the police is pretty relaxed about it. If you do have a certain amount (over three grams) on you, then you get a warning.
I once got on ILX very very very drunk. It was fun. It was less fun crawling to bed an hour later. Even less so the next morning. Rhum. Hmmmm. I want a mojito.

so, when I left, it made sense to me to leave the house through the same door I came in. I opened the door, closed it behind me, and stood around for a while trying to figure out why it was pitch black outside and where my car was. after a little bit, I figured out I was in his garage. so then I stood around a while trying to figure out if I should try to figure out how to open the garage door (one solution) or go back into the house (defeat). I eventually decided to go back into the house. so I went in and they were watching the door already, laughing at me and I was like "duude how the fuck do I leave yr house?????"
